My computer was behaving strangely. Whenever I scrolled the mouse on a site or for a search, I would be redirected to some other site usually shopping advertisement sites or a request by google to add an extension via something like removed by Moderator . As per the guidance in tom'sHARDWARE, I installed Malwarebytes in safemode with networking. The threats were quarantined but my regular antivirus, Net Protector from removed by Moderator started projecting all Malwarebytes files as malware/virus. This is really irritating. My problem seemed to disappear for sometime. There would be an attempt to redirect via removed by Moderator , but it would not go through. But the attempt itself should not happen, right ?
So I went to the next step and installed and ran combofix. BUt the original problem has started all over again.
Here's my combofix log :
